The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock,
both protecting similar data, one for file backed pages
and the other for anon memory. To this end, this lock can
also be a rwsem. In addition, there are some important
opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.
This conversion is straightforward. For now, all users take
the write lock.
